Witnesses reported that the altercation began as a heated argument between Mr. A and his Thai girlfriend, escalating until the woman called for backup from her sister and brother-in-law, the latter described as a large-built foreigner. The trio allegedly fled before authorities arrived.

Police are working to reconstruct the sequence of events and determine legal liability. While initial accounts suggest the conflict originated between the couple, the involvement of additional parties has complicated the case. Investigators are reviewing CCTV footage and interviewing neighbors to establish who instigated the violence.
